Mitt Romney trotted out a pair of big-name GOP endorsements Thursday to urge Republicans to close ranks around him — but his main rivals refuse to abandon their own White House dreams.
Romney received the blessing of powerful Republicans past — former President George H.W. Bush — and present - popular Florida Senator Marco Rubio — in a 24-hour span, further signaling that the GOP establishment wants the grueling primary process to end.
Romney even met with opponent Newt Gingrich over the weekend in New Orleans to ask for his support, but no deal was brokered, advisors to both men told NBC News.
Gingrich has vowed to stay in the race until the GOP convention in Tampa, but money woes have forced him to trim his staff and travel plans.
Even Las Vegas casino magnate Sheldon Adelson, who has largely bankrolled the ex-Speaker’s Super PAC, said Gingrich has reached “the end of his line.”

Well La Ti Freakin Dah man.
You know, I’m going to back ANYONE who
is up against TEH ONE but really...
you could almost hear Frank Sinatra songs in the background, a shaker of martinis being made and GW trying not to call Babs “Muffy”...
Me either, Nana, me either...No Mittens, no way
I guess the good people of Georgia are going to have to pick up the slack from me!
I’ll be writing in SARAH PALIN.
All these people know is who went to Ivy schools and moves in THEIR social circles.
The Bush's have lost all credibility with me, and Mitt, the catalogue cut out never had any.--we used to play paper dolls with cut outs from the Sears catalogue because we lived so far out in the country and didn't have any money anyway. These cut outs were good looking, but flopped around as we played with them, having no spine. Slick and shallow, like GOP-e RINOS.
vaudine
...the one from Guenevere
and he never will
oh that seals it for me then , I will vote for him t hell with his social liberal views, to hell with his Govt health care, to hell with his big spending and then forcing Catholics to close their adoption services yep this seals it for me
YEA FRIGGING RIGHT ARF
Great one, Guen!
Only the elitist establishment could have screwed this up, putting out a liberal north east Gov as a conservative , the man who signed into law Govt health care, the man who has no problem with the queer agenda, queers in the military , a man who has wrote a check to the planned parent hood.
If the establishment thinks they can use our hatred of obama to push their elitist pro homo, socially liberal Gov onto us then they have another thing coming
Sarah and Col Allen West please no PLEASE STEP IN AND SAVE US FROM THESE ELITIST ARSE HOLES.
I’m hating the establishment nearly as much as the left right now.
Unlike them, I'm not ready to concede to the GOPe and try to counter Obamacare with Romneycare. There is still much to be decided in the primaries, and if crap like this is all the current administration has to run on, we should be able to win with either Santorum or Newt. There is no reason to take the easy way out at this point.
IMHO.
Rubio looking for a VP spot. It’s that simple.
...WE MUST KEEP FIGHTING
THIS IS STILL AMERICA AND WE ARE STILL THE PEOPLE!
Who actually votes based on endorsements?
But let’s all remember the most important thing is getting BHO out..../sarcasm.
I will not vote for Romney, I will not vote for Santorum and I will not vote for Newt.
It won’t be my fault if bho is reelected. It will be the fault of the GOP and the people who will vote for anyone with an r behind the name.
Bend down and kiss the hand of those who feed you, may your chains rest lightly upon you, and let posterity forget you were our countrymen.
The most important thing is saving the Republic. We won’t do that by electing socialists, socialists lite, or those who will compromise with them.
If BHO is reelected We The People MUST rise up and block the agenda by electing conservatives, PATRIOTS, to local, state and congressional office!
In my opinion, Rubio just ended his political career, possibly for a VP nod. But Romney's campaign will be ravaged in November. He will never be President of the U.S., thereby leaving Rubio to run back to the Senate.
Except that Bush signed the Rio Accord in 1992 endorsing UN Agenda 21 sustainable development further backed by executive order by Clinton in 1993. You’ve connected the dots.
The coveted G.H.W. Bush endorsement.
Likely the Bush from 1992.
